  My wife and I have been coming to Akbar for 15 years (since highschool). We have had Indian food in many cities in multiple countries...We have never had better than Akbar. Food is amazing, staff is gracious and the decor is beautiful. Go for the buffet it's awesome. We no longer live near by but when we are in town we always visit.

  i am from NYC. i have eaten at plenty of the finest general and specialty restaurants, with the highest Zagat ratings and reviews, in all 5 boroughs as far out as east Hampton. I can say and affirm with all honesty. This restaurant had the FINEST SERVICE i have ever had the pleasure of experiencing in a restaurant anywhere in NY. I was literally taken aback by how swiftly this packed place on a Saturday evening could attentively seat us. As soon as someone gets up from their table, they had the table cleaned, clear, ready with fresh water and clean silverware in the 30 seconds it took for us to walk over, while the the other party was leaving(mind blown). The food was timely. The waiter actual took our order for the appetizers, brought them to us with our drinks, let us enjoy ourselves, than came back and took our order for the main course which arrived less than five minutes from our appetizers being finished.
  
  EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS, and I'm very critical. On top of that...Everytime we finished with a fork, knife, or spoon, one of the servers would spot that we had put the used silverware down and would remove it, only to return it to me cleaned in less than a moment(jawdropping). We literally had fresh silverware the entire evening through 3 courses. Are you ready for the icing on this amazing cake...the owner or manager of the establishment was going around with a smile asking everyone how their meal and experience was thus far(a long forgotten courtesy). Of course i could hardly wait for him to ask me! This was all while a large wedding party was going on in the catering part of the hall. AKBAR remains very true to its Magnificent name, being by far THE GREATEST RESTAURANT EXPERIENCE I'VE HAD THUS FAR.
  The only thing i am disgusted by are these google reviewers looking for a reason not to give this excelsior establishment, a less than excellent review. You all should be ashamed of yourselves! Please don't go back, because i would like for it to be filled with people like me who know what quality is and appreciate phenomenal food and service. I am in love and definitely will put it in my budget to be a regular here.
